Many bead patterns are written for one brand. This table lets you rebuild them with the other: search for the colour name and read across.
Every match is computed with CIEDE2000, the colour-difference formula that tracks how people actually perceive colour, from our documented RGB values (how colour matching works). Bead colours come in a much smaller range than thread, so expect more approximate matches than for DMC and Anchor — especially for pastels and specialty finishes.
For a whole pattern, open it in the bead pattern editor and switch the palette to Hama; every colour is remapped automatically and the bead counts update.

Frequently asked questions
Are Perler and Hama beads the same size?
Midi beads from both brands are about 5 mm and fit standard square pegboards with a 5 mm pitch.
Why are some matches only approximate?
Bead ranges have far fewer colours than thread ranges, so the nearest colour can still be visibly different.
Can I iron mixed-brand projects?
Usually yes, but brands can fuse at slightly different speeds. Test a small piece and iron evenly.
Do you have other brands?
The generators also support Artkal S, Nabbi and MARD palettes; choose them from the Palette menu.
